Hello son. So you’re reading back your old man’s show blurbs, are ya? This one was for my first (and, sadly, best) show Here Comes Mr Funny way back in 2026! While I have your attention, if you find a way to travel back to the past, let’s have a same-age arm wrestle. I’d love to see who comes out on top. Can’t wait to defeat you. Can’t wait to conceive you. Yours, Dad. Jonno is in Sheeps ***** (Guardian), 'funny' (Chortle.co.uk), 'Johnson' (Times) and is the Head Writer for Saturday Night Live UK.

About the show

Country Mile Productions presents Jonno's debut solo hour, Here Comes Mr Funny, at the Edinburgh Festival Fringe. The show is written as a future letter from Jonno to his unborn son, reflecting on this first show from somewhere far ahead in time. Jonno is a performer and comedy writer — the Head Writer for Saturday Night Live UK — who has also appeared as part of the ensemble Sheeps. The show runs for 60 minutes at Monkey Barrel 2, includes audience participation, and is suitable for ages 14 and over.

Why see this show?

A debut hour with a genuinely inventive conceit — Jonno addresses his future son from 2026, which gives the show a warm, self-aware edge. The Head Writer of Saturday Night Live UK makes his solo Fringe case here.
